Sabrina Velez Police & the Community The Lucifer Effect In 1971, psychologist Philip Zimbardo created an experiment that explored the impacts of becoming a prisoner or prison guard; basically someone with authority did to people. Zimbardo was interested in finding out how participants react when placed in a simulated prison environment.

After Graduating, he took his first post at Stanford University in 1953 where he has worked ever since. In 1963, along with his colleagues Dorothea Ross & Sheila Ross they set up an experiment to investigate whether aggressive behaviour would be imitated by children. This was done by observing them under different circumstances, recording the results and analysing them. (Investigating Psychology, Open University 2010 page 109) The Experiment The experiment consisted of 96 children with an equal split of boys & girls, ranging from the ages of 3-6 years and was conducted on an individual basis. The group was divided into 4 equal groups; * Group 1 – Observed a live model behaving aggressively towards a blow up doll * Group 2 – Observed a film of a live model behaving aggressively towards the doll * Group 3 – Observed a film of a cartoon model behaving aggressively towards the doll * Group 4 – Observed NO aggressive behaviour towards the doll The experiments were carried out in the same
The Stanford Prison Experiment was a mock prison experiment where they had chosen 24 Male Students selected from the 75 who volunteered to join the experiment. They had chosen the 24 Male students “because they had no criminal background, lacked psychological issues and had no major medical conditions. The volunteers agreed to participate for a one to two week period in exchange for $15 a day.” From those 24 Male Students, they were assigned randomly to either be a prisoner or a prison guard. The “Prison” was conducted in the basement of Stanford’s Psychology Department building. The “Prison” had a “yard”, which was the only place in the “prison” where you are outside.
Raritan Valley Community College 1971 Stanford Prison Experiment Submitted by: Alexander Angeles Submitted on: September 18, 2015 Phillip G. Zimbardo conducted the 1971 Stanford prison experiment from August 14 to August 20. The experiment was a study of the psychological effects of becoming a prison guard. It was financed by the U.S. Office of Naval Research and was of enthusiasm to both the U.S. Naval force and Marine Corps as an examination concerning the reasons for struggle between military gatekeepers and detainees. The members adjusted to their parts well past Zimbardo's desires, as the prison guards authorized dictator measures and at last subjected a detainees' percentage to mental torment.

Bob Henry Mrs. Patterson English 1123 p25 October 31, 2012 “Revisiting the Stanford Prison Experiment: a Lesson in the Power of Situation,” is about a prison experiment designed to prove how good people can do bad things when face with a certain situation. In the experiment Philip G. Zimbardo brings 24 physically and mentally healthy college students with no criminal history to participate in his experiment. These participants were assigned to either play a prisoner or a guard and were paid 15 dollars a day just to be in the experiment for 2 weeks. Before the two weeks were even over Zimbardo had to call the experiment to an end, due to extreme street and zombielike attitude and posture in the prisoners. To some the experiment seemed like a complete failure but in reality Zimbardo proved his point within six days of his experiment.
